In real life, the members of both bands are friends.
Affectionate Parody: The video for "Rejection Role" features the band as rivals of In Flames. The band is also known for being an influence to metalcore, to the point where some have even considered them part of the genre, although their unique sound has for the most part kept them from avoiding the label, at least negatively. They are led by vocalist Bjorn 'Speed' Strid and were also led by guitarist Peter Wichers until he left in June 2012. Despite this, most metal fans respect the band and do not seem to care, as their songwriting has been praised by many. Their sound change led to a Broken Base, with many feeling that they simplified their sound and sold out. 
They are considered one of the most important acts in melodic death metal, particularly in the Swedish scene. They started off as a straight melodeath act, but they had started incorporating Alternative Metal elements starting with their fourth album, and increased them overtime while still keeping a melodic death metal edge.
Soilwork is a Melodic Death Metal / Alternative Metal band from Sweden.
